Plastic hair?

Wednesday, February 11th, 2009

I visited my regular barber shop for a haircut today. I quite enjoy these visits as I get to see myself in the mirror and the barber buzzing about.
I had a new barber today and he did something to me that I had not experienced before. He put gel in my hair!
Normally papa would stop [...]

Hello, grandma!

Tuesday, February 10th, 2009

Hello, grandma! Cough?
I spent the day with grandma today. I was recovering from my fever and my folks had to farm the work out to her because they were working.
I didn’t mind because I got a break from school! I even wanted to stay over, but that was not to be because I am feeling [...]

Tuesday, February 3rd, 2009

I am man, er, boy enough to say that I sometimes sleep with a stuffed animal toy. I have a cat, a lamb, and a wombat.
The cat is called Kitty, the lamb is Skippy, and the wombat is just Wombat. They have each been with me on my trips to Sydney, San Francisco, and Bali.

Busy weekend

Monday, February 2nd, 2009

I had a busy weekend. How about you?
On Saturday, I had a play date with one of my best buds from school. My buddy’s parents devised a way for us to play downstairs and outside AND also for them to pass stuff down to us. It was a magic basket. We could ask for whatever [...]
